Enjoying Your Stay

The following information has been prepared by the local students and provides useful information for people who want to have a good time after an exhausting day of sciences as well as less expensive accommodations. They are interesting places to go and relax and can be found on a google map!

Pubs & Night life

For lazy people, there are two bars very close from the congress center... Both are typical places with sometimes live music:

Des Goûts et des couleurs (3 rue Maraldi, 04 92 12 13 48)

Le Kedge, place Arson

In the corner of the port, you may enjoy a beer in the Wagram (rue Fodéré). One street farther is La Malle (4 rue Bavastro, http://www.myspace.com/cafelamalle), a new bistrot that just opened this summer. Feel free to come with your harmonica or your guitar, you may be asked to jam a song!.

In the old town, you will find English Pubs everywhere. If you rather drink wine or pastis, there are however some French bars. The terrace of La dégustation (place du Palais de Justice) is a classic for the apero. After hours, Le Stacatto (4 Rue Pont Vieux) worth a stop.

Music addicts will find good jazz concerts at La Cave Romagnan (22 rue d'Angleterre) every saturday evenings (http://caveromagnan.free.fr/). Le Sezamo (32 rue Fontaine de la Ville) is also a nice play to go (http://lesezamo.free.fr/ ). Le Volume (6 rue Defly) offers live concerts every evenings, from reggae to rock or punk and techno. Two steps farther is a queer bar with good cocktails (The smarties, 8 rue Defly).
